Quebec City

When: January 1998, about 3 days.
Why: escaped ice-storm that paralyzed Montreal.

Some parts of Quebec city actually look old (Europe style), the way the old port of Montreal is alleged to look like. A walk near the river, along the canons, is nice. And of course, since I cannot avoid mentioning food, they had the best crepes I've ever tasted, in the old-town. (cheap, too).
